What Is Shock?
|
Complex syndrome associated with cardiovascular failure to deliver blood 02 nutrients
clinically identifiable manifestations which signal the body's inability to supply o2 to the cells |
|
Hypovolaemic Shock
|
decreased circulating blood volume leading to decreased cardiac output and reduced tissue perfusion
|
|
Transport Shock
|
insufficient haemoglobin to carry the required oxygen to the tissues
|
|
Obstructive Shock
|
Inability of the heart to fill properly (tamponade) oro obstruction of outflow from the heart.
Pulmonary embolism,pneumothorax ,cardiac tumours, dissecting aortic aneurysm |
|
cardiogenic shock
|
circulatory failure caused by inability of a damaged heart muscle L or R ventricle to pump the required amount of volume blood with each stroke
|
|
treatment of shock
|
hypo perfusion focus regardless of the underlying cause of classification of shock
goal to achieve adequate perfusion and optimum o2 delivery CO must be restored and maintained |
|
Cardiac Output CO
|
the amount of blood pumped each minute is a product of HR by SV
|
|
Stroke Volume SV
|
dependent on preload, afterload and myocardial contractility
|
|
Preload
|
reflects the V of blood in the ventricle at the end of diastole, just before systolic contraction ejects it. If the V increases, the amount ejected increases. FRANK STARLING LAW
|
|
4 stages of shock
|
Initial
compensatory progressive refractory |
|
Initial
|
decreased cardiac output, tissues under perfused increased anaerobic metabolism, increased lactic acid accumulation
|
|
compensatory
|
reversible- mechanisms activated to compensate for decreased tissue perfusion
|
|
progressive
|
failure of compensatory mechanisms
|
|
refractory
|
cellular necrosis and multiple organ dysfunction sydnrome
|
|
Anaphylactic Shock
|
severe allergic reaction caused by an antigen antibody
insect venoms pollens shellfish penicillin nuts mast cell degranulation release of mediators resulting in massive vasodilation and severe hypotension |
